Ever since losing the first two games of the season by a combined score of 109-2, the San Francisco Giants have exhibited something of a trend. They usually do one of two things:
- They win a game that you’re not sure they’ll win until it’s over. Or,
- They lose a game that you’re not sure they’ll lose until it’s over.
That’s mostly it.
This game was the latter, as you might have surmised by the loss-centric headline and the gloomy atmosphere hanging over you right now.
The Giants flirted with winning — never enough to make you actually think it would happen, but enough to keep the TV turned on.
